Question

Express a temperature of 60^@ F in degrees Celsius and in kelvin.

Answer 1

Explanation:

because we know that

temperature on kelvin scale = temperature on Celsius scale+273

temperature on kelvin scale=60 degrees

hence

temperature on celsius scale=273+60

=333 degrees celsius

Answer 2

The temperature in Celsius i.e T°C = 15.55°C and in kelvin will be T(k) = 288.7k.

Explanation :-

To find the value of temperature in T°C behalf of temperature in T(°F).

we have the formula

T(°C) = $\frac{5}{9}x[T(F) - 32]$

Given T(°F) = 60

then T(°C) = $\frac{5}{9}x[60 - 32]$

T(°C) = $\frac{5}{9}x28$ = 15.55°C

T(°C) = 15.55°C This is the value of temperature in Celsius.

Also in Kelvin , we have

T(k) = T(°C) + 273.15

T(k) = 15.55 + 273.15 = 288.7k

T(k) = 288.7k This is the value of temperature in Kelvin
